Annuals, 3–60 cm; taprooted. Stems 0. Leaves basal; petiolate; blades linear to narrowly elliptic or spatulate, 3–25 cm, margins entire, dentate, or pinnately lobed, apices acuminate to obtuse, faces glabrous or lightly scurfy-puberulent. Peduncles erect or curved-ascending, ebracteate. Involucres ovoid to fusiform in fruit, 5–14 mm.

Discussion
Microseris bigelovii is the most characteristically coastal of the annual taxa and the only one to include plants with obtuse, spatulate leaves (K. Bachmann et al. 1984). A statistical analysis of its morphologic variation was published by Bachmann (1992). It sometimes has been collected at inland sites at 500–600 m, where the cypselae may have been introduced by domestic animals. The northern populations near Victoria, British Columbia, and the San Juan Islands, Washington, are disjunct from the main range, which extends from Oregon to Santa Barbara County, California.
